ABSTRACT
This research showed that trafficking in children is, without doubt, a despicable practice. It is a dehumanizing practice for millions of children trapped in it because their fundamental rights are violated, and their future is jeopardized. In the light of the lack of result in the combat waged against human trafficking in general and child trafficking, in particular, this study sought to examine the contributing factors to the status quo. This endeavour was purposed to fill the existing gap in the literature and propose the way forward in regard the total eradication of child trafficking. Hence the study enquired about the efficacy of the legal frameworks for child protection in Nigeria with a focus on child trafficking in the legal pluralistic context of the country. This line of inquiry implies that there was a problem of efficacy in implementing and enforcing the relevant legal frameworks. This is not to purport that the legal frameworks are ill-conceived or poorly drafted. It should be recognized that the most enlightened lawmakers drafted them, and also the laws appear fit.
